I'm having the same issue. Dual boot. Windows 10 on its own SSD and MacOS High Sierra 10.13.3 with Nvidia web driver .104 (the latest driver causes terrible graphics lags) on its own SSD. Acer predator xb271hu monitor.
I noticed in Windows 10 that G Sync feature was all of a sudden missing from GeForce Control Panel or whatever it is called.
Unplugging the Displayport cable and plugging it back in while I'm in Windows 10 pops up a message "G Sync monitor enabled monitor detected" or something like that and then the feature is back. I tested it and unless I do this, G Sync is indeed NOT enabled in games. Really annoying. I was suspecting it is related to my hachintosh but wasn't sure. Now I'm sure of it, seeing that others report the same issue.
G-Sync is disabled in NVIDIA Driver Manager (System Preferences) so I thought maybe I need to enable it in MacOS as well. But, if I enable it, the system freezes completely within a few seconds and the only way out is restart. While G Sync is enabled, once MacOS loads again, it freezes right after typing my password. The only way I found to disable G Sync is by disabling NVIDIA web driver in Clover boot screen and once I'm in MacOS, delete folder /Library/PreferencePanes/NVIDIA\ Driver\ Manager.prefPane and restart. It would be great to hear if there's a better way to disable G Sync once it has been enabled already and freezes MacOS.
There was a moment when I thought I managed to get it to work with G Sync after I changed the monitor refresh rate to 144Hz. It was originally set to 60Hz. But, at some point after a few minutes it froze once again :/
Does anybody here have by any chance G Sync enabled in MacOS and still experiencing the issue on Windows 10? I'd like to know if it has any affect on this.
Uninstalling Nvidia Web Driver is out of the question. MacOS is unusable without it.
EDIT: I found out there's another post in the forums where there are many others experiencing the same issue https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...fter-booting-into-os-x-yosemite.170092/page-3
